The NPAPI sandbox is off by default. The "dom.ipc.plugins.sandbox.flash"
pref will only enable the sandbox for Flash. There is another pref,
"dom.ipc.plugins.sandbox.default", that will enable the sandbox for all
NPAPI plugins, including Java. I didn't mention the "default" pref
because we wanted people to focus their testing on Flash, but if you
find any Java crashes or bugs with the "default" pref, please let us know!
thanks,
chris

Do any of these affect NPAPI Java behaviour somehow? (ie: can it break
applet running or privileges?)
Thanks.

Bob Owen just landed a basic sandbox for Firefox's NPAPI plugin
container (bug 1123245) in Nightly 38. This NPAPI sandbox is
orthogonal to Adobe's Flash Protected Mode sandbox.
The sandbox is Windows-only and preffed off for now. To enable it,
flip the "dom.ipc.plugins.sandbox.flash" pref to true. Flash
features that could use focused testing are file
uploads/downloads, camera/mic access, and clipboard.
A more restricted NPAPI sandbox is coming in bug 1123759.
